Oregon reportedly benching QB Dylan Raiola in favor of Brock Thomas for Nebraska recreation

The Oregon Ducks will reportedly begin quarterback Brock Thomas over Dylan Raiola for Saturday night time’s recreation in opposition to Nebraska, according to On3.

Raiola, who transferred to Oregon in January after taking part in two seasons with the Cornhuskers, struggled throughout final week’s 17-15 loss to UCLA. The junior went 6-for-19 for 43 yards and two interceptions. He was relieved by Thomas, who ended the sport going 11-for-15 for 156 yards and a landing.

Both quarterbacks noticed motion as a result of absence of Dante Moore, who suffered a concussion throughout final month’s win over USC. Moore is out of concussion protocol and has returned to practice in pads, in response to Oregon head coach Dan Lanning.

Lanning hinted earlier this week that the offense may very well be totally different for the Nebraska recreation, however was not about to announce what he had in thoughts.

“There’s going to be some modifications, some variations in the way in which that we function and what we do, and there already is, the way in which we have operated this week,” Lanning mentioned. “But so far as revealing how we’ll do this, what issues will appear to be, I’m not going to share that with [the media].”

The 3-2 Ducks and 5-1 Cornhuskers will kick off from Autzen Stadium at 11 p.m. ET on Fox.
